Good Afternoon! First of all, thanks for the advice. I was able to
accomplish, via a small amount of manual manipulation, the desired outcome.
The compromise I had to make was manually entering Roman numeral page numbers
on pages ii through vii. Using the instructions you provided, I was able to
facilitate the remainder of the document's pagination PERFECTLY. Again,
thanks a million. Jeff

Hi Henn966,
Here's a way to get what you're after:
1. Insert your footer page #s with the formatting you require.
2. In Section 1:
. insert the header page # fields coded as Page {PAGE \# 0} of {NUMPAGES}.
. create a field in the header coded as {SET S1Pages {SECTIONPAGES}}
3. In Section 2:
. create a field in the header coded as {=S1Pages+{PAGE \# 0}}.
. create a field in the header coded as {SET S2Pages {SECTIONPAGES}}
4. In Section 3:
. create a field in the header coded as {=S1Pages+S2pages+{PAGE \# 0}}.
Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above field codes are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy &
paste them from this message.

I'm using Word 2003 on a large document with a Header that must contain Page
x of xx consecutively on each page.
Footers, on the other hand are the problem. The first section uses Roman
numerals for pagination (i, ii, iii, etc.). The next portion uses arabic
numerals [numbers] (1, 2, 3, etc.) and the final section contains the
Appendices which must be shown as A-1, B-5, C-11, etc.
I cannot figure out how to "mix modes" on the pagination without losing the
consecutive pagination in the header. Even with individual section breaks
and customization therein, I still cannot show a Roman number page number in
a footer and still maintain pagination. Any thoughts would be GREATLY
appreciated. Due to time urgency of this request, recommendations are
requested to come to my home email (too) which is . In
advance, THANKS!! Jeff
